bilms: SARAKI ESCAPE BEING LYNCHED BY ANGRY YOUTHS

Senator Bukola Saraki escape being lynched yesterday in ilorin, the kwara state capital.

The incident occurred around 5:00 pm at Pakata area,in Ilorin west Local Govt.

According to an eye witness, the former Governor was said to have organized meaningless empowerment in the area which angered the youths and caused the distributed materials ended up being destroyed.

It was stated that,The former governor, son of the late Waziri of Ilorin who is anxious of becoming an undisputed leader like his father narrowly escaped being lynched.

Who is after Senator Bukola Saraki?



Again, the peace of Omu-Aran; headquarters of Irepodun local government area of the state was at the weekend threatened when the former governor of the state, Dr. Bukola Saraki mobilized everything to the town at the instance of Hon. Akeem Aiyedun who was distributing some items for his constituents.

Some of the items were motorcycles, grinding machines and others. The event was billed to share largesse realized at the national assembly by the legal practitioner turned politician.

Barely few minutes into the programme at the present of the former governor, thugs disrupted the programme and carted away motorcycles and other items. It was difficult for anyone to resist as this was done by gun wielding thugs. They shot sporadically, while everyone became helpless.

It’s funny how rumour spreads like wildfire. I was present at the event and am shocked that what is written here is a total misreprsentaion of what went down.

I was invited by a friend and to start with, the event was organised by the present Commissioner for Justice of kwara state; Barr Kamaldeen Issa Ajibade. The intention is to empower youths in the ward where he came from which is Ilorin west. And from what i heard several people say during the event, they said such has never happened in that Local government. And they were glad that someone could give back to the society which he belonged.

The presence of Saraki was just to honour him as a reputable political icon in the state and also to bridge the gap between people in the grassroots whose voice cant be heard... We all know that these people suffer cos there’s no one to represent them in the state and federal level. So i think it’s cool that he’s giving his people a voice to be heard.
Various items given out to beneficiaries are Bikes, Sewing machines,Pop corn making machine,Grinding machine, Building materials for bricklayers, carpentry materials for carpenters.
It’s true that thugs n touts invaded the place but they dint cart away with any of the materials. They were just making noice and demanding that they should be given bikes too.

Several beneficiaries got scared and pleaded to the Commissioner that they’ll prefer to come for their items elsewhere because the thugs would collect whatever they were given after the Commissioner and Saraki had left. So they took all the materials back in trucks and asked the beneficiaries to come or them later. Below are some pictures i took personally at the scene of the event.

I’ll find out if the stuffs have been handed over to the various beneficiaries and get pictures if possible. Pictures speak volumes!

Romance / Re: How Will You React If Your Fiancee Accused You Publicly Of Infecting Her With Hiv Virus. by Rated18: 10:21pm On Oct 19, 2011
OP Gotta say dis based on wot u've narrated, it seems to me like the lady has some things against you. when words are said, pay more attention to the motive behind them rather than the words themselves. the lady in question has trust issues with you, she doesn't trust u and d incidence only gave her an opportunity to vent her anger thoughts, we all can differentiate toilet infections from STIs. So y go ahead to accuse you of infecting her with HIV when the test says something else? My advice: u need to make her understand that trust is a basic ingredient of the foundation process of any relationship. mutual respect is also necessary. you can diss each other privately(not saying it's appropriate but it happens) and make up afterwards but publicly? dat's a NO! NO! this shdn't stop u from forging ahead with your intentions with her if ONLY the feeling is mutual cos she might be having doubts too and might wanna use any excuse available against you but if she's cool with you, be cool with her. Crownprince, ensure to communicate wit her constantly. All d best bro

There's this President Jonathan's youth empowerment innovation which was launched on the 11th of this month going on geared at youths who want to be entrepreneurs and employer of labour. You might want to register and submit your ideas and after review, you could get from a million naira to 10 million to be self employed.

You're seconded Bawses. It was pretty nauseating to watch what i consider a blunder! Does it mean that Ghana is being rated ahead of Naija Musically? that singular act made me have less regard for the BET management.  angry
